Viticulture

This wine comes from vineyards over 20 years old. The planting of our vineyards was made following quality criteria, seeking low yields and small-berry bunches. Therefore, the density of plantation is very high (4,000 plants per hectare, according to a plantation frame of 2.5 x 1 metre), low-vigour grafting, Guyot training for higher vegetation, trickle irrigation managed in order to guarantee a good harvest with a certain hydric stress for higher quality grapes.

Winemaking Process

Alcoholic fermentation for 6 days at 28ºC. Maceration in contact with the skin for 5 days . After devatting, malolactic fermentation took place.

12-month ageing in American oak barrels followed by a 6-month bottle ageing.

Colour

Intense cherry red colour.

Aromas

On the nose, there are notes of ripe fruit (blackcurrants and cherries) which are well integrated with toasted aromas of cinnamon, caramelised tofee and butter.

Palate

On the palate, this is a velvety wine with good structure and good fruit levels. High quality tannins abound.
